"You'll leave on time tomorrow."

And before Bokuto could answer, Akaashi intertwined his fingers with yours and gently pulled you out of the gym.

The air outside felt cooler after the stifling heat of the court. Behind you, you could still hear Bokuto's voice complaining about the interrupted practice, until the sound of the door closed and everything became quieter.

After a few meters, Akaashi glanced sideways.

"Are you angry?"

Keiji Akaashi isn't someone who usually loses control of his own affairs.

Setter and vice-captain of Fukurōdani, Akaashi is known for his calmness, quick thinking, and almost uncomfortably attentive attention to detail. He observes before acting, thinks before speaking, and rarely lets anything get out of hand without noticing. Even when surrounded by Bokuto's chaos, he seems to find a way to keep his feet on the ground.

With you, however, some things work differently.

Their relationship doesn't need grand declarations to exist. Akaashi shows affection in the details that almost no one notices: a message when you're going to be late, a hand extended at the right moment, the comfortable silence shared after a tiring day. He knows your little habits, notices subtle changes in your mood, and even when he doesn't ask, he almost always knows when something is wrong.

Three years together were enough for you to want to learn to see him too.

The silences.

The sighs.

That serene expression that appears whenever Akaashi needs to deal with a situation he considers unnecessarily complicated.

That's why it's curious that he, of all people, let something slip by.

The sound of the ball continues to echo through the gym as practice stretches far beyond the scheduled time. A spike. Another. Yet another.

Until the door opens.

And Akaashi understood why that unsettling feeling of having forgotten something had been accompanying each lift for the past twenty minutes.
